Pilot assessment of cyanotoxins as potential risk factors for cancer in Bulgaria [PDF]

BioDiscovery, 2017
Cyanoprokaryotes (=cyanobacteria, blue-green algae) are the most ancient oxygen-producing phototrophic microorganisms, spread all over the Globe, which form the important basis of different food chains in aquatic and terrestrial habitats. However, due to

The first two complete mitochondrial genomes for the family Triglidae and implications for the higher phylogeny of Scorpaeniformes

Scientific Reports, 2017
The mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) can provide useful information for analyzing phylogeny and molecular evolution. Scorpaeniformes is one of the most diverse teleostean orders and has great commercial importance.

Environmental DNA Metabarcoding for Simultaneous Monitoring and Ecological Assessment of Many Harmful Algae

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Harmful algae can have profound economic, environmental, and social consequences. As the timing, frequency, and severity of harmful algal blooms (HABs) change alongside global climate, efficient tools to monitor and understand the current ecological ...

Characterization of a Fungal Modular Polyketide Synthase System Reveals an Unusual Strategy for Polyketide Chain Initiation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Fungal modular polyketide synthases (PKSs) remain largely unexplored. Functional characterization of the LasC/LasD assembly line established its role in strasseriolide C biosynthesis and suggested an unexpected strategy for chain initiation, in which a malonyl unit is transferred from the module 2 acyl carrier protein (ACP) domains to the loading ACP ...

Action Plan for Monitoring, Mitigation and Management of Harmful Algal Blooms in the Coastal Waters of Oman

Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 2007
The Gulf of Oman, an ecologically and economically rich ecosystem, is frequently impacted by occurrences of harmful algal blooms. Recent studies indicate an increase in the number of causative species and harmful impacts.
